Do you know about Johatsu in japan: Often you must have heard people saying that life is full of heart and now they either want to start it afresh or leave it all and go somewhere far away. However, such things are of short duration and the very next moment a person gets engrossed in his life. Today we will tell you about a place where people really ‘fly like steam’ away from life and they are never known again.
You must have heard a lot about Japan in terms of technology and education. Here children are introduced to the reality of life from childhood and are given training for the future. Still, you would be surprised to know but people in Japan are suddenly disappearing leaving everything in their life. Then no matter what someone does, they cannot be traced.
How do people disappear?
In Japan, people who disappear like this are called Johatsu. In the Japanese language, Johatsu means ‘evaporating’. Companies regularly help these people in this work and for this they charge a hefty amount as fees. Many times people leave home for work as usual and then do not come back. Companies that make people disappear professionally are called night moving services. The living arrangements for the missing people are made at secret places and they get a chance to start a new life there. People unhappy with personal or professional life also adopt this option.

The process of becoming Johatsu has been going on for years
According to the BBC report, Sho Hattori, who started such a service in the 1990s, told that people who become Johatsu, that is, disappear, do not always think negatively. Earlier, where people used to disappear to avoid debt, now people do the same for new job or second marriage. First of all, this process started from the 1960s, which is continuing till now. Due to strict laws regarding privacy, people take help of detectives instead of police, yet it becomes almost impossible to meet such people.
